I currently have a couple of y-cams and they are able to record on a Windows (7) network share I want to buy a DS-2CD2132-I for outdoor recording but I can't figure out if it is able to record to a windows network share. Can somebody help me?

After some further working on the problem, I changed a HEX key in davince.tar.gz by connecting to the cam with telnet. Now the cam "remembers" the share and it starts recording like it should. on the plus side, this cam has a very nice wide angle view, clear picture, nice price.

Well so far, I wouldn't advice anyone to buy this cam if you just want to have it record to a Windows share. This is the steps I took: - Enter the share in the NAS Section adres: 192.168.1.10 /hikvision (SMB-CIFS) (hikvision is a shared folder on the D drive, accessable anywhere in the lan as \\192.168.1.10\hikvision - next you have to format this share (why??) and it creates datadir0 - datadir8. Reports 130GB cap, 67GB free (no where close but whatever) - It fills the datadirs up with a whole bunch of 0 kb files - It records 1 minute file named hiv00000 - that's it - If you reopen de NAS section, you have to do the formatting again. - " title="Applause" /> - Let's compare to my y-cam: Enter windows share. Save settings. Done

Thank y'all. I'm going to buy one and see how it goes.
